Consultation on guidance to the amended COMAH regulations

The Control of Major Accident Hazards Regulations were
introduced in 1999 but are to be amended in the middle of next year
(a consultation exercise over the proposed changes ended
recently).

The associated guidance to the regulations is being revised to
take account of these amendments and the opportunity is being taken
to update the whole guidance (A Guide to the Control of Major
Accident Hazards Regulations 1999 - L111).

It is intended to publish the revised guidance when the amended
regulations come in to force - currently anticipated to be 1 July
2005.
